BIOSCIENCE ANNOUNCES ADJOURNMENT OF SPECIAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS
SARASOTA,
Fla., September 29, 2023 — INVO Bioscience, Inc. (Nasdaq: INVO) (“INVO” or the “Company”) today announced
that its special meeting of shareholders on September 29, 2023 (the “Special Meeting”) was convened and then adjourned, without
conducting any business, in order to provide shareholders additional time within which to vote on the proposals as described in the Company’s
definitive proxy statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on September 1, 2023 (the “Proxy Statement”).
The
adjourned Special Meeting will reconvene on October 13, 2023 at 12:00 p.m. Eastern Time at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/INVO2023SM.
The record date of August 21, 2023 for the adjourned Special Meeting remains the same. Shareholders of record may attend the virtual
webcast meeting by logging in through the same method.
During
this adjournment, the Company will continue to solicit votes from its shareholders in favor of (i) Proposal 1 to approve an increase
to the number of authorized shares of common stock of the Company from 6,250,000 shares to 50,000,000 shares, and (ii) Proposal 2 to
approve, for the purposes of Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 5635(d), the reduction of the exercise price for the March 2023 private placement
warrants from $12.60 per share to $2.85 per share. The Company is required to receive the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority
of the outstanding shares for Proposal 1 to pass. At the time of the Special Meeting’s adjournment, Proposal 1 had received the
affirmative vote of holders of more than 83% of the shares casting votes with approximately 45% of the outstanding shares having cast
votes in favor of Proposal 1. The Company is required to receive the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority in voting power of
the votes cast affirmatively or negatively (excluding abstentions) at the Special Meeting by the holders entitled to vote thereon for
Proposal 2 to pass. At the time of the Special Meeting’s adjournment, Proposal 2 had received the affirmative vote of holders of
more than 42% of the shares casting votes.
Shareholders
who have already voted their shares on the proposals contained in the Proxy Statement do not need to vote again. Proxies previously submitted
will be voted at the adjourned Special Meeting, and shareholders who have previously submitted a proxy or otherwise voted need not take
any action.
INVO
encourages all shareholders, as of the record date on August 21, 2023, who have not yet voted to do so promptly.
Shareholders
may use the Proxy Card that they were originally provided with or vote in the manner as set forth in the Proxy Statement.
Additional

Company filed the Proxy Statement with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on September 1, 2023 in connection
with our solicitation of proxies for the Special Meeting. INVO BIOSCIENCE, INC. SHAREHOLDERS ARE STRONGLY ENCOURAGED TO READ THE PROXY
STATEMENT (AND ANY AMENDMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTS THERETO) AND ACCOMPANYING PROXY CARD AS THEY CONTAIN IMPORTANT INFORMATION. Shareholders

About
INVO Bioscience
We
are a healthcare services fertility company dedicated to expanding the assisted reproductive technology (“ART”) marketplace
by making fertility care accessible and inclusive to people around the world. Our commercialization strategy is focused on the opening
of dedicated “INVO Centers” offering the INVOcell® and IVC procedure (with three centers in North America now operational),
the acquisition of US-based, profitable in vitro fertilization (“IVF”) clinics and the sale and distribution of our technology
solution into existing fertility clinics. Our proprietary technology, INVOcell®, is a revolutionary medical device that allows fertilization
and early embryo development to take place in vivo within the woman’s body. This treatment solution is the world’s first
intravaginal culture technique for the incubation of oocytes and sperm during fertilization and early embryo development. This technique,
designated as “IVC”, provides patients a more natural, intimate, and more affordable experience in comparison to other ART
treatments. We believe the IVC procedure can deliver comparable results at a fraction of the cost of traditional IVF and is a significantly
more effective treatment than intrauterine insemination (“IUI”). For more information, please visit www.invobio.com.
